Apart from the usual rectangular beds, you can find round beds, square beds and heart-shaped beds. In fact, you can order a bed in pretty much any shape, but then you'll deal with unusually shaped bedlinens. There is a much larger selection of comforters, duvets, etc. for your standard shaped beds.

Without the need for a box spring, platform beds take up less space. This is ideal for smaller bedrooms. Even in large rooms, the extra space can be put to other uses, like storage. Many platform beds even have built-in underbed storage. This extra storage is possible because the space is not being taken up by a box-spring.
